Cleveland Council on World Affairs
“Words really can’t encompass how thankful I am for the exceptional job done by the Improve Consulting team for our Developing Civil Society ladies leadership seminar. The national programming officers and the State Department programming officers were both blown away by the overwhelmingly positive feedback they received from the visitors. In fact, at their final evaluations, the visitors ranked Cleveland as their favorite city in the national tour and nearly unanimously rated the seminar with Improve as their favorite experience in Cleveland. [Improve was] literally THE hit of their national program!”

Lubrizol
Absolutely, Great choice AARG! I thought the message was powerful and something most could relate with. I look forward to applying the tools I’ve learned today!
Lubrizol
Lubrizol
Many thanks to AARG for arranging this workshop. I came out with a “better” mindset about myself, the way I work, and my relationships with others. Needless to say, I will be using what I learned today to the greatest extent possible in my role with Lubrizol, in the community at large, and in my circle of INFLUENCE (one of today’s workshop terms).

Case Western Reserve University
Ellen is a fantastic, engaging presenter.

Baldwin Wallace University
The tools [that Crickett] provided were great and the real-life examples really helped understanding.

Westfield Group
I’ll be using some of the meeting management ideas that Ellen provided. Scheduling meetings to be no more than 50 minutes. Just like grade school, to allow folds to get to other meetings and have a bio break. Creating an agenda that specifies the outcome so that the meeting can be productive.

The Supreme Court of Ohio Judicial College
Ellen was an interesting speaker. Her examples drove home her points. Her perspective really challenges you to examine your own leadership style.

Thank you, Ellen! She is an amazing presenter/teacher and made concepts that could be difficult to grasp/understand more readily acceptable and comprehensible.

Baldwin-Wallace University Professional Development Course

“Ellen Burts-Cooper declared at the start that our course was just another type of meeting, and that it was her objective to make the course as engaging as the meetings we were learning to hold. Ellen did not ask us to leave electronics off or put away; instead, she challenged herself to hold a session where we would not feel inclined to split our attention, and she did not disappoint.”
